: 'At the age of twelve my ambition was to be a gangster. To me being a :
: wiseguy was better than being president of the United States. To be a :
: wiseguy was to own the world.' GoodFellas is Henry Hill's own story, :
: telling the fascinating and sometimes brutal details of the day-to-day life:
: of a working New York mobster - the violence, wild spending sprees, his :
: wife, his mistress, his code of honour. From the small-time scamming of his:
: early years, his first arrest at the age of sixteen and initiation into the:
: dealings of his wiseguy friends and bosses, Henry Hill tells of the good :
: times, dodgy dealings, indulgences, and the insularity of the :
: mob-controlled neighbourhoods. But things start to go too far. To save his :
: own life, Hill turns into a Federal witness, and the mob is to this day :
: still hunting him down for revealing their involvement in hundreds of :
: crimes including arson, extortion, hijacking, the six-million dollar :
: Lufthansa heist (the most successful cash robbery in US history), and :
: murder. :
